What’s a ‘day in the life’ like in your role?
My day usually starts off with a team call to run through projects we’re all working on for the day. Next, I’ll review my social media schedule and post what I need to post for that day, as well as plan ahead and prep any assets needed for the week. After lunch, I will usually write some content, ranging from blogs to landing pages to long form content for SEO. Lastly, I’ll do a status check on our venue marketing and make sure everything is scheduled and delivered on time.

What’s your best experience you’ve had with Hire Space?
In 2019, I was invited to the NTAs (National Television Awards) by the O2. We got to walk down the red carpet, watch the ceremony in one of their VIP boxes and got to party with all the celebs at the afterparty!

Do you feel like your opinion matters at Hire Space?
Since the moment I started, I felt the company culture, and the attitude of those around me, meant I felt immediately included and valued. I have found that if I have an idea or disagree with a point made, I have free rain to share my opinion. Everyone has equal opportunity to have their voices heard and celebrated.

How does Hire Space create a diverse and inclusive culture?
I think that the fact that two thirds of the transformation team are not British, or English is not their main language speaks by itself.When tackling complex tech problems we always try to find answers in past experiences, and the fact that our backgrounds are so diverse is a great way of ensuring that we always find the perfect solution and just the only one that we have.

How do you feel Hire Space supports you as a parent?
The parental leave here at Hire Space is just out of this world. Having three months to adapt my whole lifestyle to the second baby was a HUGE help. Also, if I need to cancel last minute because my son is sick it’s never a problem, which removes one thing to worry about from the equation and leaves you to focus on what is really important.

What aspect of Hire Space’s culture keeps you at the company?
One aspect of the culture that keeps me at the company is how well everyone gets on as one big team. I really like that at Hire Space we call the whole company a ‘team’ not just individual teams, it really highlights how everyone works together in the business. I really enjoy our breakout out rooms twice a week on our morning meeting which gives us a chance to catch up with each other, particularly those we don’t get to work with on a day to day basis.When the whole team does meet up in person everyone gets on really well and there is no divide at all!

Do you feel like your opinion matters at Hire Space?
One thing I’ve always noticed about Hire Space, is how from Day 1, everyone has a voice. It doesn’t matter what your role is or how long you’ve been with the company, everyone is able to bring ideas to the table. The mantra is, “if you think there’s a better way of doing something, let’s hear it!” and I love that!
Eliot Sargeant
Business Development Manager
What makes the company culture unique?
The Hire Space team cultivates such a “family” vibe! I’ve never worked within such a supportive team before and the collaboration between everyone is truly special! Everyone and anyone will go out of their way to help you work wise if they can... and they’re also on hand to help you sink a few drinks at the end of the day!

Do you feel like your opinion matters at Hire Space?
Definitely! Hire Space is always looking for feedback, asking for our comments and opinions on upcoming projects or aspects of the business. If I want to give any feedback there are a number of ways in which we are encouraged to do so, and the business does listen.

How do you feel Hire Space has invested in you and your professional development?
Hire Space commits a dedicated budget for every team member for learning and professional development and has actually gone above and beyond that to fund my ACCA exams, helping me to develop in my role and my career. They’ve also allowed me to dedicate work time to my study to help me balance work, life and study.

For me it has to be the people, and the variety of work.

No one day is like another, and I have the opportunity to produce a real range of events.

What’s your best experience you’ve had with Hire Space?
I’ve had a lot of amazing experiences since I started working with Hire Space 8 months ago. From visiting quirky new venues on FAM trips, working at our annual trade show Event Lab to speaking with my brilliant clients about their exciting upcoming events. My top experience would definitely be attending the National Television Awards at the O2 last September! Being hosted in a corporate box and being surrounded by famous faces is definitely something I'll never forget.
